Your daughter's strategy

Yang Minzhi had already stood up, and saluted: "Your Majesty Yang Minzhi, I heard that Xu Ge's family is here, so I came here to visit."

The old lady hurriedly said: "Don't dare to be, don't dare to be, the deceased husband has already been demoted to a commoner, and he can't afford to be the second son of the court."

Yang Minzhi smiled slightly: "The old lady is too modest. Who doesn't know that Mr. Xu Ge is the most upright and honest. His reputation and integrity are respected by everyone in the court. I rushed to the door. Please forgive me if I disturb you."

The old lady hurriedly said she didn't dare, so she sat down according to priority, and asked the eldest lady to serve tea, Yang Minzhi then looked at Xu Run'an and Xu Jinghuan: "These are two elder brothers, I'm being polite."

Both Xu Run'an and Xu Jinghuan naturally said that they didn't dare to do it, but Yang Minzhi smiled and said: "I heard that Brother Jing Huan was appointed as the head of the case by Shen Zhifu. I think he is a talented person. I really admire him."

Xu Jinghuan's heart skipped a beat, and he cupped his hands and said, "My lord is serious."

Could it be that Yang Minzhi wanted to drag Xu's family into trouble in the name of the case?Xu Jinghuan immediately responded with full energy.

But Yang Minzhi didn't mention this anymore, instead he asked the old lady about some trivial matters, how was his health and his family, and then he offered to leave. door.

After everyone left, the old lady felt a cold sweat, and the three sisters who had been hiding in the west room came out. Xu Jinghuan frowned, guessing in his heart why Yang Minzhi came, was it really just for greeting?

Xu Run'an came back and said: "Just now the Zhang family sent someone over to ask. I reported safety and sent them away. Grandma, what do you think Mr. Yang is up to?"

The old lady let out a long sigh: "This incident has a lot of meaning. Mr. Bai Ge was suddenly overwhelmed by ginseng. Before we got the letter, Jin Yiwei came and directly restrained Shen Zhifu. This must not be the case. It happened suddenly, but it was well prepared, otherwise Jin Yiwei couldn't come so fast, the Zhang family has already been dragged into the water, it would be fine if Baige Lao stepped down, if he can recover, not only the court will have to reshuffle, but I'm afraid This city of Hangzhou will inevitably be bloody."

There was silence in the hall, and the old lady said: "Daughter-in-law, it's getting late today, you take a few children down to rest and recharge your spirits. At this time, the whole family must be strictly controlled. Run'an will send someone to Suzhou to give your father Send a letter, tell him to come back quickly, and take care of things outside, we don't know if it's a blessing or a curse, it's better to prepare early, Jing Huan stays with me."

When the old lady spoke like this, everyone had a clue in their hearts, and they went about their own business, but Xu Miaoyun didn't dare to sleep alone, so the three sisters crowded around Xu Peining's place, and the eldest lady was also busy ordering the servants to strictly control the situation. Control, don't talk a lot and don't move a lot.

Xu Jinghuan helped the old lady back to the courtyard where the old lady lived. The old lady turned her back and took out the letter from behind the altar: "This letter was sent by Lord Kang two days ago. It was written by him. , I confirmed it."

Xu Jinghuan's eyes flashed brightly, and he said: "It seems that Lord Kang has made a move, and Mr. Bai Ge has been planning this matter for a long time."

The old lady nodded and said: "The seven elders in the cabinet, except Bai Ge who belongs to Prince Duan, Chang Ge and Wei Ge are even related to Prince Duan by marriage. He is neutral on the outside, but secretly he is biased towards Prince Duan. There are many people in Prince Duan, but Prince Kang still managed this matter. It can be seen that the situation is indeed in the favor of Prince Kang. If this happens, it is certain that Baige will step down. Let us As long as the family is rehabilitated, more people will stand on the side of Lord Kang. Back then, your grandfather and your father and your uncle had many old friends in the court. They have been officials for many years, so they are quite accurate in judging people, Mr. Yang was born in Yunguo Duke's mansion, but he doesn't know who it is, it is not clear whether it is good or bad for our family, we can only wait and see."

Xu Jinghuan said: "My grandson thinks Master Yang's behavior is not difficult to understand. Lord Kang is in power, and our family is about to recover. If you want to know more about Master Yang, then his visit can also be understood as an early gesture of goodwill."

Mrs. Xu shook her head and said, "Don't be too arbitrary in everything. Prince Duan has been in power for a long time, so why would he just sit and wait for death? It is also possible that he arranged for Mr. Yang to come to Hangzhou to make a surprise move to protect Mr. Baige. Instigate, who will take care of Bai Ge's affairs."

Xu Jinghuan said: "But Prefect Shen became old because of Baige. If something happened to Prefect Shen, isn't Baige more unlucky?"

But the old lady smiled: "Hangzhou is no more than the capital, the sky is high and the emperor is far away. One sentence of deception can push the matter to Shen Zhifu. Accepting bribes can also be said to be Shen Zhifu himself. It can all be attributed to Shen Zhifu's self-assessment, pretending to be a tiger, so that there will be more people involved, and it is easy to fish when the water is muddy."

Xu Jinghuan thought for a moment, and said, "What does grandma mean?"

The old lady shook her head: "Just wait and see. I'm [-]% sure that nothing will happen to our family, but it's hard to say for the Zhang family. When we first moved here, we also accepted the Zhang family's favor and helped as much as we could." , tomorrow you go to the yamen to talk to Mr. Yang, you have the reputation of a scholar, and he came to visit at home again to find out, as long as you can save people, don't feel bad about this money, after all, money is dead, people are alive of."

Xu Jinghuan agreed.

On the second day when Xu Jinghuan went to the yamen early in the morning, Yang Minzhi greeted him politely, but when he mentioned something to inquire about, Yang Minzhi laughed, but in the end he didn't ask anything. Xu Jinghuan was disappointed and felt more and more that this was the case. Yang Minzhi is not a simple character.

Dong Zicheng was originally detained at home by Mr. Dong, but when he heard that Jin Yiwei had also entered the door of Xu's house, he couldn't sit still any longer, and hurried over to hear the news. Only the eldest wife and three sisters were at home, and Mrs. Xu went to Zhang's house again in the morning up.

Xu Miaoyun was the youngest, so she met Dong Zicheng and told what happened last night: "...the man on the porter suddenly ran in to deliver a message, trembling with fright, my aunt and us were also frightened, my grandmother and brother were not I'm at home, but luckily he didn't come to arrest people, and that Lord Yang just gossiped and left."

Only then did Dong Zicheng breathe a sigh of relief, and said, "Hangzhou is full of turmoil and everyone is in danger. You must be careful. Those Jinyi guards are not easy to save fuel. The sudden visit must be very meaningful."

Xu Miaoyun solemnly said: "Thank you brother Zicheng for reminding me, I will tell brother."

Dong Zicheng sighed, as if he was talking to himself: "I don't know if the autumn can be held as scheduled if the trouble is like this. If I miss it, I will have to wait for another three years."

As if answering Dong Zicheng's words, on the second day there was news that the emperor had appointed Mr. Yu, the left servant of the Ministry of Rites, and Mr. Feng, a scholar of the Imperial Academy, as the chief and deputy chief examiners of Zhejiang Province.

The first ones who breathed a sigh of relief were those students who studied hard in order to make a carp leap over the dragon gate. The provincial examination was held every three years. If they missed this time, unless the emperor added Enke, they would have to wait another three years in vain.

Because of the Zhang family's affairs, the Xu family and the Zhang family didn't even have a good time during the Mid-Autumn Festival. Everyone was very upset. The only good news was that the old man came back from Suzhou. With him around, the old lady was obviously relieved. With a calm tone, with a backbone, and a smile on his face, he followed the old lady to Zhang's house every day to discuss things about Master Zhang.

Xu Peining and Xu Jinghan were entrusted with all family matters, while outside affairs were handled by the Elder Master and Xu Run'an. Xu Jinghuan also started the final sprint to study and prepare for the [-]-day exam.

The township examination was held in the Gongyuan of Hangzhou Prefecture. The students who came to catch the examination had already arrived two days in advance. The inn was overcrowded, and there were many more people on the street. The haze of the previous few days was swept away. The examination was divided into three sessions. , For three days each game, eating, drinking, lassing and sleeping are all in the hut of the Gongyuan.

Although it was Xu Jinghuan's first time, the Elder Master was someone who had experienced it, and even the hardships involved, he gave Xu Jinghuan detailed instructions before the exam.

On August [-]th, Xu Run'an and Xu Miaoyun personally sent Xu Jinghuan to the Gongyuan. Xu Jinghuan was not nervous at all, and told Xu Miaoyun with a smile: "I'm not at home, so don't be naughty."

Nine days passed by in a flash, Xu Jinghuan was always in good health, he was carried into a carriage when he left the Gongyuan, and he slept for a whole day before recovering, no one in the family asked how he did in the exam, Xu Jinghuan was not worried, he was at home every day So, Dong Zicheng came with him for the entrance exam a few times nervously, seeing Xu Jinghuan calm and relaxed, he went back with confidence.

The day for the announcement of the rankings arrived. Early in the morning, people beat gongs and drums to send good news to each house. The Xu family also sent people to look at it. Everyone in the family was a little anxious, but it didn't take long before they saw the servant of Xu's family come to the door together with the sender of the good news: "Congratulations, the second young master of your mansion has won, he is No.1, and he was hand-picked as Jie Yuan. What a joyous event."

The Xu family immediately cheered, the old lady smiled and asked for a reward, and all the servants in the family also rewarded it once, and the neighbors on the left and right also came to congratulate her. This is not only winning, but also No.1. I will see Xu Jinghuan in the future I'm going to call Xie Yuangong.

Not long after, someone said that Master Yu and Master Feng hosted a banquet for the students, and Xu Jinghuan was invited to the banquet. Mrs. Xu also happily sent Xu Jinghuan away, and the Xu family naturally closed the door to celebrate again.
